Implementation of the EPIC Earthquake Early Warning System in the Bursa Province (Türkiye) and Its Surroundings

Earthquake early warning systems aim to reduce the potential danger by providing a in seconds before strong ground shaking occurs. In this study, we implemented EPIC, an algorithm for Bursa province and its surroundings, which is seismically active region. We replayed 104 earthquakes of M ≥ 3.5, occurred around study area between 2012 2021. derived period amplitude-based magnitude-scaling relationships using peak displacement amplitude (Pd) predominant (Tpmax) parameters first 4 s P-wave arrivals. investigated performance through testing with real-time data. observed improvement when comparing magnitude estimates made newly developed equations default used California. have also found that estimation Pd gives better results than Tpmax estimating accurate final magnitude. adapt EPIC system, specifically each region Türkiye where earthquake risk high.
